Proceeding contribution from Lord Judd (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 9 September 2020. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Immigration and Social Security Co-ordination (EU Withdrawal) Bill.
Immigration and Social Security Co-ordination (EU Withdrawal) Bill
My Lords, I am glad to support this amendment and to put on record my admiration for the noble Baroness, Lady Hamwee, who is an indefatigable defender of democracy and its character. Elections are crucial to our system in terms of accountability and the representation of people. It is vital that if any changes are considered in this area, there is proper scrutiny by and accountability to Parliament. For no other reason, I find this amendment one that we should all take very seriously.
